<p>I thought it would be nice to give a little shout out to two blogs that I am always inspired by when I pop over for a visit.&nbsp; The first being <a href="http://www.cucumbersome.com/" target="_blank">Cucumbersome</a> and the second being <a href="http://riflemade.squarespace.com/" target="_blank">Rifle Blog</a>.&nbsp; Both feature a wonderful range of eye candy as well as DIY projects to inspire you.&nbsp; If they aren't already, I highly recommend adding them to your feed reader pronto.</p>

<p>I was inspired to create this week's <a href="http://www.creaturecomfortsblog.com/home/category/chic-for-cheap-affordable-style" target="_blank">Chic for Cheap</a> outfit when I came across this wonderful <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/jenniferdavisart/3653703191/" target="_blank">painting</a> by Jennifer Davis.&nbsp; I've been inspired by Jennifer's work in the past (you can take a <a href="http://www.creaturecomfortsblog.com/home/2009/3/24/chic-for-cheap-an-art-inspired-look.html" target="_blank">look here</a>) and really enjoy her use of vivid color throughout her paintings.</p>
<p>I imagine this outfit being worn outside on a lovely Springtime day, or maybe for a lunch out with friends and a trip to a local art museum:</p>
